[Ming] Wuzong's Chronicle of Rebirth

Chapter 122 The 9th Year of Hongzhi

Sighing, Du Sheng got up from the bed, leaning against the wall, he could vaguely hear the distant sound of camel bells and the bustling sounds of the street.When I was there and wanted to listen more, the door was suddenly opened from the outside, and an imposing man in a white thin shirt walked in.He was holding a tray with bowls and chopsticks and a blue-and-white porcelain bowl in his hand, and he was still holding on to the door frame with the other hand. He saw Du Sheng curled up in the corner like a little mouse, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many years, how come?" Hua also started to listen to the corner of the wall." Jihua is Du Sheng's name, but he didn't expect him to call it his own name, and he was really full of thoughts for a while.

After tidying up his clothes, Du Sheng stood up, sat silently by the side, and poured himself a cup of tea.Seeing that it turned out to be Mingqian new tea, which is rare in the north, I felt even more depressed, and put down the cup again.The visitor brought the things in, signaled the people behind to lock the door, and put the things directly on the table in front of Du Sheng.He opened the lid and saw that it was thick boiled chicken soup, and the man scooped out a bowl for Du Sheng himself.

Not going to pick up the soup bowl in his hand, Du Sheng smiled weakly and said, "When did the prince start serving others, why didn't I know." It turned out that the person who came was Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao, and he was not annoyed at all. He put the chicken soup in his hand in front of Du Sheng, put the spoon on it, and sat down and sighed to Du Sheng: "I haven't seen you for many years, how did you live like this? Don't you love this tea the most? Don't like it anymore?"

Hearing what he said, Du Sheng laughed and said: "I'm just a man of mustard moss without the prince, how can I be worthy of this kind of tribute tea." He said with a smile in the tone of a man in the market: "I haven't had this kind of chicken soup for a long time, and I have to thank you, the prince. I, a poor man who has not eaten meat for three months, can also taste such delicious chicken soup." .”

It turned out that Zhu Chenhao just wanted to make fun of him, thinking that he was so self-deprecating, he hurriedly explained: "You know that I don't mean it, why are you so angry at me again." After hearing what he said, Du Sheng threw the spoon To the bowl, angrily laughed. "I know best if I despise the prince. Why do you say that I am angry with the prince now? The grassroots can't afford such a crime."

Seeing him getting emotional like this, his shaved little face turned pale with anger, Zhu Chenhao calmed down again with distress, and softly persuaded: "In the past, you were at fault, and I was also at fault. We finally met again, and you Why do you have to do this?" Then Du Sheng became even angrier, and said sharply, "It's so hard to meet again, you still have the nerve to say it. You know why we met best. Do you want me to be obedient to you like everyone else, to please you? King Ning?"

Zhu Chenhao was speechless for a while, the way he imprisoned Du Sheng was indeed disgraceful, so he could only laugh at himself: "I know you are the most caring person, and I won't force you, when the matter is over, we will go back together Go to Jiangxi." He touched the teapot again, the tea was already cold, and he said, "You haven't eaten for a few days, even if I'm angry, I shouldn't be angry with my body. Drink the chicken soup first, and later Let's drink some porridge when you recover. This tea is cold, I'll ask someone to change it for you. "

After speaking, he lifted the teapot and was about to leave, but was grabbed by Du Sheng. "Where are my people? What do you want to do? Don't you know that the emperor has become more and more suspicious of the vassal king in recent years?" Of course Zhu Houzhao was dissatisfied. In the past few years, he has been strict with these clan nobles every year.Although Du Sheng didn't want to care about Zhu Chenhao on the surface, he was still consciously understanding some things in this regard, and he still had a good understanding of the general situation.

The dark eyes sparked with hope again, but after a long silence, Zhu Chenhao just choked out a word. "You don't need to worry about this, I know it myself." He took off Du Sheng's hand again, closed the door and went out.Only Du Sheng was left sulking inside, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, so he just whipped up a can of chicken soup.When the people outside heard the sound inside, two beautiful servants came to clean up everything and brought pots of soup.

There was no hope of escaping for the time being, Du Sheng sat down panting, only feeling that his body that had not eaten for several days was limp.After thinking about it, I feel that everything may not be without loopholes, and I still need to think about it.Look at the chicken soup in front of me again, even if I don't want to eat Zhu Chenhao's soup, I can only take a bowl to fill it up, and drink it by myself.

After I finished drinking and lay there, the two servants from just now came in again to tidy up everything, replaced it with a bottle of fresh flowers and put it on the side cabinet, and brought in a new pot of tea and put it on the table.When the two servants locked the door and went out, Du Sheng hurriedly leaned on the door to eavesdrop on something, but he heard a servant lower his voice and said frivolously: "This is the Jihua that the prince never forgets, right? I haven't realized for a few days that she is truly a peerless beauty after shaving her beard, but her skin is too rough." Immediately after that, another servant also smiled and said: "See what the prince loves him, I don't know If you can't stop, you will be ruthless."

Du Sheng wanted to listen carefully, but the two of them had already walked away, so Du Sheng had to sit back on the bed alone.Judging by the sunlight shining through the panes, it should be noon. After thinking about it, there is no other way but to wait.When I was bored, I read Zhu Chenhao prepared many books for myself, and when I opened them, they were full of obscene words and songs like Huajian Yuanren, and I felt even more bored, so I just fell asleep.

Zhu Chenhao said goodbye to Du Sheng and came out with the teapot. When he arrived in the yard, he saw a very capable man under him named Yang Huang waiting there. Seeing Zhu Chenhao came out, Yang Huang rushed up to meet him.He was about to take the teapot from Zhu Chenhao's hand, but Zhu Chenhao shook his head and refused.Seeing that Zhu Chenhao insisted, Yang Huang had no choice but to give up, and said: "My lord, those people have already been transported here. According to the order of the lord, I also used the prepared corpses to change the clothes of the Tatars in the bandit village. Others Everything has been arranged."

The two walked to the door of the kitchen together, handed the teapot to the maid, and told her to change a pot of tea for Du Sheng later, and came out with Yang Huang. "Is there any news in the capital?" Yang Huang hurriedly replied: "There is news from Feige that An Guogong, people from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War have come to Datong, and the other Crimean has already left Jiangnan. Probably not coming back." Zhu Chenhao nodded after hearing this, and asked again: "Have all those people been recruited?"

"No, except for the few servants below, both the people from the imperial court and the people from Anguo's mansion are hard-spoken, and they just don't say anything." Of course, they couldn't ask them to confess in the name of King Ning, but pretended to be They recruited the Tatars and asked them to recruit, but they all failed, no matter whether it was coercion or lure, they just didn't say anything. "Master, do you want to put all those punishments on them..." He said with a gesture of wiping his neck.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Chenhao still stopped Yang Huang and said, "They are still a man, so don't make things difficult for them, listen to the news, let them go, just don't reveal our situation at all, only go to the Tatars. Leading from the body.” Back then, Zhu Houzhao and the others put a lot of thought into building such a caravan, and the people selected were all loyal to the country.Now, under the situation of being captured by the enemy, the mighty cannot be subdued, the rich cannot be lewd, even Zhu Chenhao praises him very much.

With so many people, Zhu Chenhao wouldn't have the ability to hide Zhu Chenhao all the time. There are only two ways, either kill or release.Originally, Zhu Chenhao wanted to kill people to silence him.But seeing Du Sheng's attitude, if he killed them, Du Sheng would definitely hate him, and these people really made him admire, so Zhu Chenhao changed his mind and wanted to let them go.But Yang Huang was very worried, and wanted to persuade Zhu Chenhao: "Master, if this matter is leaked out, it is no small matter, these people must not be released."

There is no need to discuss this matter again, and I will pack my things tomorrow.If this matter is settled, we will go back to Jiangxi.The things found on them, um, why don't you just pretend that you don't understand Chinese, burn all the letters and letters in front of them, and leave only the topographic maps to make them feel at ease. "Actually, this group of people was not caught by Zhu Chenhao at the beginning. They were stranded on the grassland in a snowstorm. They almost froze to death when they ran out of food and water. They lost their horses and camels. They walked for four or five months to the border of the Ming Dynasty. , and was later caught by a small group of bandits. This group of bandits was going to take these people to the exchange market to sell, just happened to meet Zhu Chenhao who got the news by accident and came to find Du Sheng.

Originally Zhu Chenhao wanted to let them go, but among this group of people, Zhu Chenhao's people recognized at a glance that there were court officials among them.With Zhu Chenhao's status, it is inconvenient to show up now that he is here.Later, it was discovered that what they were searched for was not just a caravan, so Zhu Chenhao simply asked his followers to pretend to be Tatars and intercept them again.It turned out that they found something unusual.

Although Zhu Chenhao secretly colluded with the Tatars, selling smuggled salt and smuggling tea and ironware, it did not mean that he was willing to uproot Daming's power in Tatars.So there was the previous scene.Thinking about what he saw, Zhu Chenhao smiled again: "It's good now, this time not only has I brought in hundreds of thousands of silver, but also I have gained unexpected gains. This trip is worthwhile." Although Yang Huang disagreed, But the prince had an order and had to execute it, so he had to leave and leave.

Here, Zhu Chenhao has already led people back to Jiangxi with Du Sheng before the first snow falls.The other members of the caravan were also rescued by a small team of people stationed at the border guard station under the operation of Zhu Chenhao's relationship at the border. When they recovered, they happened to meet Du Ruo who came to Hami.

A group of people were already starved to the point of emaciation, and after a month of raising them, they managed to raise some of them back, but they were still very emaciated.They all lived in the inn in Hami in Anguo Mansion. If it was inconvenient for Du Ruo to meet them in this crowded place, he borrowed and lived in the Krim's house, a single-family house prepared for himself by the Krim's house. The small courtyard met them.

The author has something to say: Let me explain, the image of Zhu Chenhao here is purely fabricated by himself, and he is not trying to rebel.Now he is just making some small moves, and if he rebels, he will have to toss for a while.Everyone will know why Du Sheng, an inexplicable character, is written.When the weather is hot, a bowl of homemade mint ice is really cute. ~(≧▽≦)/~ la la la
